Description

Important Notice - Package Contents & Requirements:

This product is a bare adapter Hat board designed to interface an RFM69 module with a Raspberry Pi.

  • NOT Included: RFM69 transceiver module, SMA antenna, Raspberry Pi computer.
  • Soldering Required: You must solder your own RFM69 radio module onto the designated surface pads.

Note: If you need a breadboard-compatible format instead of a Raspberry Pi Hat, please see our RFM69 Breakout Board.

RPIRFM69 - Raspberry Pi Hat for RFM69 Wireless Radio

The RPIRFM69 Hat allows seamless integration of an RFM69 transceiver module onto any Raspberry Pi with a 40-pin GPIO header. It provides a clean, robust hardware interface featuring an integrated female SMA connector for attaching an external antenna.

What is Included in the Box?

  • 1x RPIRFM69 Hat Board (with factory pre-soldered 40-pin GPIO socket and SMA antenna connector).

What You Need to Provide:

  • 1x RFM69 Transceiver Module (RFM69W / HW / CW at your desired frequency, requires surface soldering).
  • 1x SMA Antenna matching your radio frequency (e.g. 433 MHz or 868 MHz).
  • 1x Raspberry Pi computer (Zero / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5) running Raspberry Pi OS.

Software Setup & Programming

The board uses the Raspberry Pi SPI interface and is easily controlled via Python using the open-source library:

For Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm & Trixie:

sudo apt install swig python3-dev build-essential liblgpio-dev -y
pip install rpi-rfm69-lgpio

For Raspberry Pi OS Bullseye:

pip install rpi-rfm69

Enable SPI via sudo raspi-config (Interface Options > SPI > Yes). Ready-to-use Python transmission and reception scripts are available on the official documentation page.
